Though she's been singing, dancing, and acting professionally since she was 10, teen queen Jennifer Love Hewitt could probably empathize with the hordes of starstruck teenyboppers who trail around in the wake of her Party of Five co-stars, Scott Wolf and Matthew Fox. When her own favorite actor, erstwhile small-screen dreamboat Johnny Depp, paid a surprise visit to the Party set in the fall of 1995, Hewitt, who maintains an impressive collection of celebrity autographs, couldn't quite contain her emotions; as she recalled later, "I started screaming at the top of my lungs, locked myself in my dressing room and had a crying, screaming fit." (Perhaps fortunately for her peace of mind, an accommodating Depp phoned later from his New York City digs to invite the adoring ingenue to drop by for coffee on her next visit to the Big Apple.) After two seasons of hugs and hankies in the most angst-ridden drama on television, Hewitt took a page from fellow Party player Neve Campbell's playbook: Campbell shot to big-screen stardom in the Wes Craven splatter-fest Scream, and Hewitt supercharged her own cinematic career with a starring role in the equally gory (and similarly lucrative) I Know What You Did Last Summer.
